Memorial Day

PPS about each victim from the terrorist attack on Yeshivat Mercaz Ha'Rav

החוברת מביאה כ- 100 סיפורים על ניסים שהתרחשו במהלך מלחמת לבנון השנייה

The Six Days and the Seven Gates of

Jerusalem

Based on a modern day Midrash by former Israeli President

Yizhak Navon

Being that Sunday is 10 Be’Tevet, we would like the chanichim to be confronted with the question: why is remembering important? 

Review some of the basic parts of the Israeli Army; Stress the impact that Tzahal has on every Jew.

Goal:  To examine the concept of z’chira as it derives from TaNaCH and how collective memory shapes us as a nation

Order of the Tekes (ceremony)

-         yom hazikaron

-         light the candles

-         yizkor

-         unknown soldiers

-         how can I bless him

-         tfila leshlom hamedina

-         tfila lhayaley tzahal

The purpose of the peulah is to make chanichim sensitive to and aware of the messages of Yom HaZikaron.  While Yom HaZikaron is a very emotional day, this peulah has been kept relatively light because it is designed for snif.
